- 27that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
- 28Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself:

- 30because we are members of his body.
